The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 30 June 2022. |
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
The key financial and other performance indicators during the year were as follows: |
2022 | 2021 | Change % |
£ | £ |
Turnover | 4,720,663 | 2,940,991 | 61% |
Profit for the year after tax | 304,420 | 230,097 | 32% |

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
The principal risks facing the company are its exposure to market movements which impacts ongoing revenue from portfolio management together with the impact of increasing regulatory costs and change. |
The principal uncertainties facing the company are: |
- the ability of the company to generate turnover and gain new business against a background of volatile financial markets. |
- the difficulties facing UK financial firms post-Brexit seeking to advise clients based in, or moving to, EU countries. |
- the challenges and potential disruptions involved in implementing new regulations under the FCA Consumer Duty rules in 2022/23. |

Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 30 June 2022 |
SECTION 172(1) STATEMENT |
Statement by the directors in performance of their statutory duties in accordance with s172 (1) Companies Act 2006 |
The Directors are pleased to report that despite the challenges involved in emerging from Covid restrictions and a more difficult period for markets, Thomson Tyndall has had a positive year. Client numbers, assets under management, revenue and profits have all increased meaningfully during the period. |
During the 2021/22 Financial Year we have seen continued growth within the Company, increasing the number of Advisers / Investment Managers from 14 to 16 and taking on a new Appointed Representative team who bring with them a specialism in mortgage business, a valuable addition to our client offering. In order to support our advisers and ensure quality of service for our clients, the Company has increased the client support team from 10 to 15. This figure includes all of our Appointed Representative firms which were authorised during the year. |
Corporate and Regulatory Changes |
After an eventful year for both corporate and regulatory changes, 2021/22 has provided a period of stability and consolidation following extensive changes made in 2020/2021. During the course of the year the team has worked hard to improve the firm's systems and processes with the overarching aim of improving the services we offer to our clients. Preparations are well underway for the further regulatory changes in the pipeline, with the implementation of the FCA Consumer Duty due to take effect during the forthcoming year. |
International Advice |
We have continued to build on our relationship with 28 Advisory (Hong Kong) who offer advice to expat and international clients on their non-UK assets, with 28 Advisory Ltd - a UK company and Appointed representative of Thomson Tyndall Ltd - providing clients returning to the UK with advice on UK financial planning matters. This relationship continues to grow, benefiting the increasing number of clients with an international dimension to their financial affairs. |
Building Long-Term Client Relationships |
The Company actively seeks, and continues to enjoy, good long-term relationships with our clients. This is evidenced by the majority of new client relationships continuing to arise from referrals from existing clients and by the absence of any client complaints during the year. |
Investment in Our Staff Team |
The firm remains committed to the well-being of our staff, paying all members of staff a competitive salary and benefits package significantly in excess of the London Living Wage, and to sharing the success of the firm by means of a profit share and bonus scheme. Furthermore, the Company invests in the training and development of all staff members, providing financial support and study leave to those taking professional examinations as part of our ongoing plan to build skills and help colleagues develop their careers. |
Relationships with Suppliers, Stakeholders & The FCA |
Throughout the year, we have maintained good relationships with our regulator, our suppliers, and the investment managers and product providers whose financial products we recommend. We believe that this is entirely in keeping with our aims for the long-term health of the Company. |

Strategic Report |
for the Year Ended 30 June 2022 |
Financial Security |
The ongoing financial security of the Company is of importance to both our clients and members. The directors are pleased to report that it remains in a secure financial position. The change to MIFIDPRU status with the advent of the Investment Firms Prudential Regime (IFPR) in January 2022 increased the regulatory capital requirement for the firm again, and so over the past year the Company has added to its financial reserves and comfortably exceeded the regulatory requirements for capital adequacy throughout the year. This is monitored continuously by the firm, with obligatory reports made to the regulator on a quarterly basis. |
ESG Matters |
The directors maintain a focus on Environmental, Social and Governance matters. The nature of our business means environmental impact is low compared to other sectors and industries, but we continue to actively pursue policies to lessen our carbon footprint, for example through recycling, the use of recycled materials and an ongoing drive towards a paperless office. |
In keeping with our corporate and regulatory responsibilities, the directors acknowledge that the Company will seek to maintain a reputation for high standards of business conduct and to act in the best interests of our clients. |
We noted and have responded to the increasing appetite amongst our clients for the inclusion of ESG investments within their portfolios. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
Thomson Tyndall Ltd (Registered number: 09779579) |
Report of the Directors |
for the Year Ended 30 June 2022 |
The directors present their report with the financial statements of the company for the year ended 30 June 2022. |
DIVIDENDS |
Dividends paid in the year amounted to £149,499 (2021: £94,238). |
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS |
The directors' intention is to grow the business organically, adding clients by referral and by taking on additional advisers where the Company finds individuals and teams whose interests and values are aligned to those of the Company. |
The nature of the business means that there is no specific target for bringing on board new advisers, the importance of fit and quality superseding the need for growth for growth's sake. |
DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 July 2021 to the date of this report. |
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |
AUDITORS |
Under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006, Sawin & Edwards LLP will be deemed to have been reappointed as auditors 28 days after these financial statements were sent to members or 28 days after the latest date prescribed for filing the accounts with the registrar whichever is earlier. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
Thomson Tyndall Ltd (Registered number: 09779579) |
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities |
for the Year Ended 30 June 2022 |
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: |
- | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
- | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
- | state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; |
- | prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Thomson Tyndall Ltd |
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Thomson Tyndall Ltd (the 'company') for the year ended 30 June 2022 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity, Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Cash Flow Statement, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). |
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- | give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 30 June 2022 and of its profit for the year then ended; |
- | have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and |
- | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
Basis for opinion |
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
Conclusions relating to going concern |
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. |
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. |
Other information |
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. |
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. |
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Thomson Tyndall Ltd |
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- | the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- | the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. |
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors. |
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: |
- | adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or |
- | the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
- | certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
- | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. |
Responsibilities of directors |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page six, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Thomson Tyndall Ltd |
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. |
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: |
Discussions were held with the directors with a view to identifying those laws and regulations that could be expected to have a material impact on the financial statements. During the engagement team briefing, the outcomes of these discussions and enquiries were shared with the team, as well as consideration as to where and how fraud may occur in the entity. |
The following laws and regulations were identified as being of significance to the entity: |
- Those laws and regulations considered to have a direct effect on the financial statements include UK financial reporting standards, Company Law, FCA regulations, Tax and Pensions legislation, and distributable profits legislation. |
- It is considered that there are no laws and regulations for which non-compliance may be fundamental to the operating aspects of the business. |
Audit procedures undertaken in response to the potential risks relating to irregularities (which include fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations) comprised of: inquiries of management and those charged with governance as to whether the entity complies with such laws and regulations; enquiries with the same concerning any actual or potential litigation or claims; inspection of relevant legal correspondence; review of board minutes; testing the appropriateness of entries in the nominal ledger, including journal entries; reviewing transactions around the end of the reporting period; and the performance of analytical procedures to identify unexpected movements in account balances which may be indicative of fraud. |
No instances of material non-compliance were identified. However, the likelihood of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is limited by the inherent difficulty in detecting irregularities, the effectiveness of the entity's controls, and the nature, timing and extent of the audit procedures performed. Irregularities that result from fraud might be inherently more difficult to detect than irregularities that result from error. As explained above, there is an unavoidable risk that material misstatements may not be detected, even though the audit has been planned and performed in accordance with ISAs (UK). |
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors. |

Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 30 June 2022 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Thomson Tyndall Ltd is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
The financial statements present information about the company as a single entity. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Significant judgements and estimates |
The Company has an unlisted investment in an offshore company with a historical cost of £39,534. The directors have made a significant judgement in applying the accounting policy relating to unlisted investments in that they do not consider an impairment of the investment is required. There is estimation uncertainty concerning this judgement due to a lack of any financial indicators about the performance of the offshore company. |
Turnover |
Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received for the provision of discretionary and advisory management services in the ordinary course of the company's activities. Turnover is shown net of value added tax. |
The discretionary and advisory management services fee is accrued daily. However, the company recognises revenue when the amount of discretionary and advisory management services fees can be reliably measured and at the end of each calendar month. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. |
Computer equipment - 20% on cost |
Fixtures and fittings - 20% on cost |
Leasehold improvements - Over the term of the lease |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Financial instruments |
The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities such as unlisted investments, debtors and creditors. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. |
Debtors and creditors |
Basic financial assets and liabilities, including trade and other debtors, trade and other creditors, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Such assets and liabilities are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. |
Fixed asset investments |
Unlisted investments are held at cost less accumulated impairment losses. |
Listed investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value, as at the balance sheet date, using the closing quoted market price. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and the carrying value. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |

Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
Operating leases: the Company as lessee |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight line basis over the lease term. |
Dividends |
Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting. |
Pension costs |
Defined contribution pension plan |
The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid, the Company has no further payment obligations. The contributions are recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the statement of financial position. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independent administered funds. |
Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents re represented by cash in hand and at bank. |
Going concern |
The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company therefore continues to adopt the going concern. |
